Chapter 444
Mother definitely doesn't want to see him now.
The nanny felt distressed when she saw the redness and swelling on Lu Xun's hand, but Lu Xun was annoyed and said that she was going to sleep and drove them all out. After waiting for no one in the room, he covered himself in the quilt and wept bitterly.
He didn't know how long he had been crying, but suddenly he felt someone pulling his quilt. Lu Xuan was startled. He didn't want to be seen by the nurse or the servants, so he held on to the quilt and said, "I'm sleeping, you all go out!"
However, his resistance was useless, the opponent's strength was great, and he easily took the quilt from his hand. Lu Xuan turned around angrily, but unexpectedly saw his father.
Lu Heng sat beside the room and looked at him with a half-smile, "Anyway, I know how to be embarrassed, and I know how to cry under the quilt."
Lu Xuan thought it was a servant, but he didn't expect it to be Lu Heng. He bowed his head shyly. His father had always been strict with him. He spoke ill of his father today and caused his mother to have a stomachache. His father would definitely punish him heavily.
However, the expected scolding did not come. Lu Heng put the quilt aside and said, "Where's your hand, stretch it out for me to see."
Lu Xun dawdled and stretched out his hand reluctantly. Lu Heng looked down, suddenly grabbed his red and swollen spot, and pressed it hard. Lu Xuan screamed in pain, but Lu Heng was unmoved. He still checked his entire hand, so he said calmly, "Did you make your mother angry today?"
Lu Xuan lowered his head and did not speak. Lu Heng laughed lightly and said, "It deserves it. It didn't hurt the bones, just some flesh wounds. It will be fine after two days."
Lu Xuan thought that his father would mention Bai Ri's nonsense, but Lu Heng didn't seem to know. After examining his wound, he stood up, patted his head and said, "Go and apologize to your mother tomorrow, don't let her Worry."
After speaking, Lu Heng turned around and wanted to leave. Lu Xuan suddenly stopped him from behind, bit his lip and said, "Father, during the day I..."
"I don't need to explain, I'm not going to be serious with you yet." Lu Heng said, "But I hope that one day, you will be able to draw conclusions based on your own thoughts instead of listening to others. I hope that day will not be far away."
After Lu Heng finished speaking, he left, leaving Lu Xun alone to sit on the bed for a long time.
When Lu Heng returned to the main room, Wang Yanqing had lost her hair and was lying on the bed to raise her baby. She heard Lu Heng come back and asked, "How is he?"
"It's alright, he was crying under the quilt when I went." Lu Heng sat down beside the bed with a smile and pulled the quilt for her, "It's you, Lang Zhong said that you had fetal gas today, and think about it later. Teach the child a lesson, just let the maid do it, don't do it yourself."
Wang Yanqing shook his head: "I don't do it, he can't remember it."
She said this, but Lu Heng knew that she was afraid that others would do something insignificant and hurt Lu Xun's foundation. Lu Heng did not reveal it, and said, "Okay, the child will teach slowly, don't worry, go to sleep first."
How could Wang Yanqing sleep, she asked: "Today he led a large army on an expedition. I heard that the emperor trusted him very much, gave him a private seal, and allowed him to use a secret letter to directly address the emperor. If things go on like this, will he threaten you? "
This is probably the happiest thing Lu Heng has heard today. Lu Heng asked, "Who is he?"
Wang Yanqing was impatient: "Who else could it be, of course, Fu Tingzhou."
Lu Heng carefully avoided her stomach and embraced his wife: "I'm very happy that you can worry about me. However, if he wants to threaten me, he must at least defeat the Mongols first."
Wang Yanqing frowned, "Could it be that there is something tricky about this battle?"
"There's nothing tricky about it," Lu Heng said, "but everyone wants to make a contribution, just like the war between Japanese pirates, everyone has a ghost, and it will fail in the end. I won't clean up the situation for him this time, I hope he can take care of those old foxes. ."
Lu Heng's words were right. When Fu Tingzhou first led the army on an expedition, he thought it was a war, but later he found out that it was a political struggle.
There are Xia Dang and Yan Dang among the civilian officers of the military governor, and the middle-level generals also have their own abacus. In the past few days, what they did most was not to discuss how to beat the Mongols, but to quarrel over who to listen to.
The Mongols were good at riding she, and they lost their fighters after a little hesitation.
After several missed opportunities, Fu Tingzhou could no longer bear this group of literati who would only be a hindrance, and used military law to punish the civilians. However, what the civil servants in Daming were not afraid of was fighting.
In the end, Fu Tingzhou became a tool for the struggle between Xia and Yan. He first fought against Xia Wenjin's protégé. Yan Wei's people thought that Fu Tingzhou was on their side, and jumped higher and higher. Fu Tingzhou couldn't bear it any longer, so he punished a Yan Wei's person to kill the monkey, and also secretly drew a clear line with Yan Wei.
He borrowed Yan Wei's strength when he became the Datong general soldier, but he has since repaid the favor. If Yan Wei wanted to use this to blackmail him for the rest of his life, to seek personal gain and break military regulations in his army, he would not agree.
However, Fu Tingzhou and Yan Weihuapao did not receive the respect of the literati, but Xia and Yan impeached him together. The emperor's desk in the capital is full of memorials for the impeachment of Fu Tingzhou. Xia Wenjin's people said that Fu Tingzhou was arrogant, cruel and inhumane.
Yan Wei's argument was even more ruthless, saying that Fu Tingzhou avoided the war and deliberately let the Mongols go, and the siege of the capital might be a conspiracy between him and the Altan tribe. Fu Tingzhou advocated Ma Shi before, and secretly funded the enemy. After the Ma Shi was stopped, Fu Tingzhou held a grudge, so he colluded with the leader of the Alta tribe, and let the Alta tribe bypass the Datong Prefecture, attack the Great Wall from the north, and besiege the capital. When the horse market is reopened, Fu Tingzhou can also take the opportunity to seize power.
